Sorry, I sort of hit the reply button before I'd read it all, but:

1. I was recently at the world's biggest one-room LAN.
2. I have ADSL at home.
3. The NIX (Network access point for this entire city) is half a mile 
from here.

So, in other words, could I....

      NIX
       |
      Wlan
       |
  Some friends
       |
Some more friends
       |
      Wlan
       |
      Me?

I've been thinking about doing this for years, I mean, a 54Mbps WAN 
connection into my house, even if shared with 8 or so people, would sure 
beat my crappy old ADSL.

How do you actually set that up though? Say, hypothetically, that the 
NIX gives us one IP for each household. So no NATing or anything. But 
how do you set up the routing bit so that all people involve get their 
connection from the nix?
